How to Use a 12 Volt Battery on a Golf Cart

A 12-volt profound cycle battery gives the ability to begin and move an electric golf cart. Profound cycle batteries are intended to be gotten down to as low as 20% of full force and re-energized more than once. Since electric golf carts don't have an alternator to re-energize the battery being used, just like the case with trucks and autos, a profound cycle battery is important to keep the cart running during a long evening on the course.

Guidelines

Stage 1

Find and introduce the battery in its compartment on the golf cart. Most batteries are found either under the front seat or at the rear of the golf cart. Introduce the battery by raising the seat or compartment top and bringing down the battery tenderly into position.

Stage 2

Interface the positive link to the positive terminal and the negative link to the negative terminal utilizing forceps or a wrench to fix the clasps. The terminals are assigned + for positive and - (a short sign) for negative.

Stage 3

Smear oil jam over the battery terminals and braces to hinder consumption. Golf carts are continually presented to the components, and dampness and mugginess can leak inside the battery compartment. Petrol jam blocks water from getting on the terminals.

Stage 4

Check the battery's charge rating, which is typically imprinted on top of the battery and can likewise be found in the administrative work that accompanied the 12-volt battery. The charge rating gives general rules to how long the battery will worked before a full release. Albeit a profound cycle golf cart battery can be gotten down to as low as 20% of its force without harm, you'll get most extreme life from the battery by releasing it to no under 50% of full charge. For instance, if the battery is appraised to control a specific golf cart engine for 12 hours, it will really arrive at 20% force in around 9 1/2 hours. The battery will drop to a 50 percent charge in about six hours.

Stage 5

Associate the battery terminals to a re-charger when the battery arrives at 50% release. The re-charging cycle takes the battery back to full power and furthermore diminishes the development of sulfur in the battery plates, which abbreviates the battery's life.

Stage 6

Clean the battery terminals with a piece of steel fleece when there is any development of white powder or staining. The steel fleece guarantees the terminals stay clean and make a decent association with the battery links. Numerous a golfer has been abandoned on the back 9 with a dead golf cart that would work if just the power could course through eroded battery terminals.

Stage 7

Eliminate the battery from the golf cart and keep it associated with the re-charger when not being used. Set the re-charger to Trickle Charge to keep up full force if the battery won't be utilized for quite a while, for example, throughout the colder time of year when golfers are inside dreaming about their next opening in-one.
